Five stars for the croissants! The baguette was freshly baked but a disappointment. It was too soft and didn't have the crunchy crust that a baguette must have. The woman at the counter was very frustrating to interact with. "I would like a baguette please." She gives a blank look. "A what?" "A baguette." "Like a pastry?" "No, like a long loaf of bread." "I don't know if we sell that. Wait here." She goes in the back and returns. "It's baking right now." "Ok. I'll wait, and I'd like chocolate croissant with a cup of coffee please while I wait." Then she puts two plain croissants in a bag and rings them up. Makes no move to pour coffee.

This was a lovely hometown cafe that I discovered during my business trip to Edison New Jersey…read more It's more of a bakery than an actual cafe, however they have it set-up very nicely and there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy. They offer a vast selection of cakes and pastries, and I had my eye on the coconut tres leches that looked so scrumptious. It was kind of priced a little bit out of my budget today, and I instead got the gourmet chocolate cupcake. I also ordered a homemade iced tea to go with the cupcake, and they both were very delicious. The service was good and the person behind the counter helped me with a smile. This place is for sure not your typical cafe, and it's really geared for short stays. It's beautiful j side and I would definitely recommend it here whenever you are in the Edison or Metuchen area.

The look of the space alone draws me in to visit, but the coffee is so good as well. Their specialty latte flavors all sounded amazing, but we opted for the tiramisu & the white chocolate raspberry. I appreciate a cafe that makes their own syrups/flavors, and the taste at Habibi's reflects that. I loved having real raspberry puree instead of an imitation syrup, and the flavor of the tiramisu latte was spot on - not too sweet, just how we like it. The coffee was bold and smooth, and I cannot wait to return and try the rest of the menu!

Ordered: Iced Crème Brûlée Latte (~$8): house made crème…read morebrûlée sauce, sweet cream top, and brûlée crust Cortado (~$5) Aya's take: Habibi Motor Cafe combines my two interests of cars & coffee! Being Middle Eastern myself, I liked the unique concept and knew I had to stop by when we were in the area. We arrived around 5pm and it was extremely loud & busy. The atmosphere and seating gives relaxing environment, but in reality, there were people with laptops (on a Saturday), kids running around, and generally the acoustics inside aren't great. Nonetheless, we placed an order and grabbed a table. I got the Iced Crème Brûlée Latte which was very well executed. It's rich, bold, and had notes of vanilla and burnt caramel. They definitely nailed the crème brûlée flavor. Even the Cortado was nicely presented and soothing. I liked that the flavor profile in the espresso was not overpowered by the milk or extraction process. I was also bummed that they didn't have their cool cups that say "Habibi" on them! Their branding is one of the things that caught my eye about them and it sucks to see them switching to nonbranded cups (assuming for cost reasons). Overall, it was worth a try!

When I walked in my eyes scanned the numerous pastries and some very colorful items and before long…read morean employee asked me if she can help. She was attentive! I asked her if the pudding cup was arroz con leche which she replied it was coconut pudding. Although, I could not really eat much, I took the pudding so I could taste it and rate it. It cost $2.25 and came in a small cup with cap. Delicately sprinkled with cinnamon the coconut pudding was quite delish and smooth! Had a nice coconut taste and smell with tinges of cinnamon hitting the tongue. The pudding was silky, and cold at the same time. Too bad I couldn't sample anything more from this bakery! I noticed a lot of breads in various single serving sizes and some look like they contain sweet toppings or fillings which triggers instant salivation for me. There are also some very colorful jello cups, flan, single slices of cake and other pastries inside the pastry counter. Outside Primavera Bakery is a hot Flamingo pink color! This bakery sits on the corner of the street and the eye catching color will draw you to take another look. Don't only take another look, but do take a leap in and try some of the baked goods inside! There are several tables where locals hang out to eat too!

I was laughed at by other Spanish customers who obviously see I speak English (assuming I don't understand them). I can usually get by with limited Spanish-- but they are prejudice and their loss.

Updating: I probably would return and bring a Spanish speaking friend. I saw another customer get served a sugar coated fresh jelly donut. I want one too.

I mean, who would go to an Italian market to ask for something other than premium Italian cuisine & delicacies am I right? Well apparently my black ass because the cute blond Caucasian girl behind the counter thought it was wise to ask me completely randomly "Ummm sirrr did you order the fried chicken & grilled chicken"??? SWEAR I'm not lying and you can't make that up. I ordered probably one of the most Jersey White Italian dude sandwiches of all time with sliced Mozzarella on it . Why you asking me if I ordered fried chicken at an Italian Market?! Was it because I was the only brother in there? Lmfao it's honestly just more funny than insulting just wanted to share this experience. The sandwich was pretty decent however. They told me they make their roast beef in house which was nice. I'd possibly return to try something else. Just cool it with the stubble context racism & teach proper customer service educate to the youth in there. Classic European market vibes that was nice I'd say.
